Cabramatta: A Moment in Time
AU$40 Read MoreAdd to cartMarkus Andersen
Sydney: T&G Publishing, 2016.“Cabramatta is not your typical Australian suburb. If you took a stroll through the streets of this south-western Sydney hub, you may feel like you are in Southeast Asia. However, the suburb of Cabramatta is emblematic of modern Australia — urban, busy and brimming with multicultural activity. Sydney photographer Markus Andersen has captured this melting pot of cultures in his distinctive, street photography style. His raw, sometimes playful images show the uniquely diverse and human side of Cabramatta, seizing little moments of beauty in everyday life. A year in the life of one of Australias most vivid multicultural communities, suspended in the amber of Markus Andersen’s lens.” (publisher’s blurb) This copy signed by Andersen.

Sydney: T&G Publishing, 2019.“Monte Cassino: Con Amore is an exploration by Steven Nestor of the destruction of a small Italian town Monte Cassino and its monastery in the Second World War. Surviving copies of The Illustrated London News from 1944 lead Nestor on a journey to discover and record the last remaining traces of the devastation of the town and the Benedictine monastery built on the site of the original Abbey chosen and founded by St Benedict in the 6th century. Blending original material from his research archive alongside his own images, Nestor encourages the viewer to cross into an elusive but violent past. The photographic windows throughout this book look out onto a buried past that continues to inform and shape our present through the fragments that have survived destruction, the passage of time and a human quest to overcome disaster. This is a journey across unremarkable contemporary places and into their dark history: forlorn graffiti semaphores in a space once littered with casualties of battle, a collapsed street sign lies unnoticed on the edge of town and autumns mulch burns on the road that snakes its way up to the summit of worship and war.” (publisher’s blurb) This copy signed by Nestor on the title page and with a signed photographic print in a paper folder laid in.

Sydney: T&G Publishing, 2012.“Narcolepsy radically delivers a process that shakes-up the form of the book to produce the art as book and the book as art. The book is a fully realised graphic vehicle. The ways in which the book operates as a series of closures and openings, also parallels the content of the book and amplifies it as an evocative, mysterious object. Narcolepsy is loaded with the poetics of sex and death realised through an exciting fusion of drawing, painting, text and photography. Narcolepsy is a disturbingly ambiguous novella in pictures and words by Max Pam (photographer) and Bob Charles (writer).” (publisher’s blurb)

This extraordinary body of work – spanning 11 years and 14 countries – provides a global look at how water flows through the spiritual and physical daily lives of people around the world. The photographs poignantly illustrate the unfolding drama of the global water crisis and how it is affecting those caught up in it: a billion people without access to clean water, another four billion without an adequate supply. Against this dire backdrop, the work also celebrates the quiet, yet essential connection with nature that water offers us.” (publisher’s blurb)

Probing at the essence of rural Australia and the emotional impact of the natural landscape upon individual psyches. Rimmer this time adds stories to the compendium. The raw, yet poetic narratives conjure the late adolescent years of a lad wrestling with whether to stay or leave his remote country homeland for the lure of the city and so much more. A coming-of-age account, the elegant mix of observation and heartfelt reminiscence are almost autobiographical, and hint to the nascent sensibilities of the young Rimmer as an artist.” (publisher’s blurb)

The obsessions and themes underpinning her work meander together in a dreamlike stream of consciousness to form a whole which is simultaneously delicate, intimate, sensual and faintly disconcerting. Green’s lyrical hand coloured portraits of young adults and images from the natural world sit beside her constructed photographs of domestic dysfunction and constructed narrative images dealing with childhood, motherhood, female friendship and fantasy. Running throughout are small punctuations of tiny moments of fragile beauty.” (publisher’s blurb)

Variety & Design in Balinese Sculpture – a glimpse [Statues of Bali]
Read MoreMade Wijaya
[Sanur]: Fotokopi, [1986].“Sculpture is the essence of Balinese Temple & Courtyard decoration: as guardian, shrine angel, diety effigy, bas relief or carved gate. The Balinese have been carving up walls, gates and shrines for at least 1000 years and in that time have digested quirks, twirls, borders, styles, movements and colouring techniques from various foreign cultures: Chinese, Javanese, Portuguese, Dutch, 20th Century Urban. The incredibly dynamic nature of Balinese Art is best expressed in carving and sculpture.” (from foreword) Made Wijaya (born in Sydney as Michael White, 1953-2016) was a landscape architect who left Sydney for Bali as a break from architectural studies at University of Sydney and stayed, immersing himself in the Balinese culture, consorting with royalty, and in 1975 was renamed Made Wijaya by a priest in a Hindu temple ceremony. This work continues his Fotokopi series of architecture/artists books focusing on sculpture, from the mythological to the erotic. This copy with 4 original colour photographs pasted in (copies are known to have differing numbers of added photographs). Issued in a numbered and signed edition of 500 copies, this one of an unknown number of Special Gift Edition copies further inscribed by Wijaya to the title page.
